I am trying to make a search by date form to work on Symfony 2.3. I have an entity with a few fields (5) the name of the entity is Schedule and two of this fields are datetime, for start date time and end Date time. I want to search by dates, but it is giving me headaches. I have this action:
public function indexAction(Request $request)
{
//time form creation
$aSchedule = new Schedule();
$dateTimeForm = $this->createFormBuilder($aSchedule)
->add('startDateTime', 'datetime')
->add('endDateTime', 'datetime')
->add('search', 'submit')
->getForm();
//getting the formr using post
$dateTimeForm->handleRequest($request);
if ($dateTimeForm->isSubmitted()){
echo 'Submited';
}
if ($dateTimeForm->isValid()){
echo 'Is Valid';
}
}
I have show the form in template like this:
<form action="{{ path('osd_sch_homepage') }}" method="post"
{{ form_enctype(dateTimeForm) }} >
<div id="start-date-time">
{{ form_label(dateTimeForm.startDateTime) }}
{{ form_errors(dateTimeForm.startDateTime) }}
{{ form_widget(dateTimeForm.startDateTime) }}
</div>
<div id="end-date-time">
{{ form_label(dateTimeForm.endDateTime) }}
{{ form_errors(dateTimeForm.endDateTime) }}
{{ form_widget(dateTimeForm.endDateTime) }}
</div>
<div>
{{ form_widget(dateTimeForm.search) }}
</div>
</form>
Now in the action every time in send the form the "$dateTimeForm->isSubmitted()" works fine, but the "$dateTimeForm->isValid()" is not getting true, I mean is never going the "echo 'Is Valid';". what am I doing wrong? Thank you in advanced. Abel Guzman
